Here is a photo of Ole and Mari Finnestad's great granddaughter, Ellen Jewell Sanderson with her confirmation class of 1932 at Calvary Lutheran Church in Lee, Illinois.

Ellen is located on the center, top of the photo.

Here is the ledger for the 1932 confirmation class.

Sanderson was the last child (of 14) born to Ellen Marie/Mary (Vallem) and Seward Sanderson (though Seward had one other child with his first wife, Martha Cody). Ellen's grandparents were Rachel (Finnestad) and Lewis Vallem.
